Congrats all, unprecedented times have now become somewhat precedented! Now that the great indoor quarantine of 2020 *seems* to be coming to an end in favor of more of an outdoor experience of freedom, we wax nostalgic on our #WFH experience, OKC attractions that have reopened like the whitewater center, National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum and more, discuss putting a moratorium on particular terms, talk about the Chamber’s new “Stand Tall, Shop Small for OKC” support local businesses campaign, some items from the #OKCBizBoost web series, and how we’re transitioning some of our events in the immediate future given the current environment and restrictions.
